Probably not, that's why I bought mine off a platform (but still at a great price), as that handling fee for collecting the VAT on delivery that all carriers apply just about kills off every direct (non-platform) purchase outside the EU. Hi, thanks for getting the book, I hope you enjoy it! Sorry but I have no idea about the VAT, as you say, I suspect not.

canberra kid Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 MARHAM CANBERRA DAYS update. RAF Marham is observing the Royal period of mourning for the Queen, which means no public events will take place before the 26th September.

John Thank YOU for co-authoring it BTW, what I always wanted to ask but always forget is: Do you happen to have been at an Eggebek open day with a real Canberra under your arm, probably in August 2003? If so, do you remember the (then MUCH younger) bloke with the tape measure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmatthewbacon Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Mine arrived during the week. Unfortunately, DPD decided leaving the package leaning on my garage door in the rain constituted delivering it to a safe place (the garage door was unlocked and both Amazon and the postie had figured out they could open it and leave stuff inside... So it's drying out -- fortunately only the corner of the cover and the end board were affected and the pages are not stuck together! Looks very good, though... best, M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bummer, it's never a good idea to let a book get wet, still it sounds to be not too bad, I hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the book.
